HANDSY

What Does HANDSY Mean?

HANDSY means "A tendency to touch other people inappropriately".
The term HANDSY refers to a person who regularly invades the personal space of other people and engages in unwanted touching or groping.

This behaviour is often linked to the abuse of power, which sees senior figures taking advantage of their statuses to carry out sexual misconduct.

The word HANDSY rose to prominence in October 2017, when a spreadsheet listing the sexual misdemeanours of 40 named Conservative MPs and other UK ministers was shared widely among MPs, staff and journalists. The document catalogued MPs who had been having affairs or been "inappropriate" with female and male staff. One minister was described as being "handsy in taxis".
